| Friend, I'm OFFICIALLY launching my campaign for United States Congress. I'm on a mission to FLIP NJ-09 RED, and I need your help. Will you watch my launch video and consider donating $1 or more to my campaign? For too long, elected representatives have moved away from bipartisan efforts to reach across the aisle and give their constituents results. As a Clifton City Councilwoman, I've established a track record of cutting through the BS of politics to deliver tangible results for my community. I plan to bring that same fiery energy with me to Washington, D.C. But I'll be honest with you – I don't have the money it takes to win a Congressional election. Especially given the fact that Nellie Pou has the backing of Billionaire Leftist Donors from Hollywood to NYC and everywhere in between. It's going to be an uphill battle, but throughout my entire life, I've done nothing but fight and earn my success. I'm a mother of 11, a City Councilwoman, and a teacher at a local non-profit organization. I've balanced all aspects of my life, even when times were tough, and still came out on top. I don't plan on stopping now. Will you donate just $1 to help me win BIG next November? I need to have a strong first month of fundraising to let the Washington elites know that I mean business. And I need your help to do it. Thank you, Rosie Pino  Meet Rosie Pino: Councilwoman Rosie Pino is a proud wife, mom, educator, community leader, and Clifton City Councilwoman. Her story embodies the American Dream. The daughter of immigrants, she has worked hard her entire life to break barriers, achieve success, and build a brighter future for her family.
Over the past decade, Rosie has dedicated herself to serving our community and fighting for the forgotten men and women of New Jersey who have been left behind by career politicians in both parties. She ran for local office and founded several nonprofits to protect the American Dream and ensure that future generations have the opportunity to thrive and prosper. She is a fighter who will always put people ahead of politics and a proven leader who will deliver results for hardworking New Jerseyans.
Rosie Pino was born in the Bronx to blue-collar Ecuadorean immigrant parents, one of six children. In many ways, Rosie could have easily become a statistic. She was primarily raised by a single mother and dropped out of high school after having her first child. However, Rosie's mom instilled in her a tenacious work ethic and a belief in the American Dream. Channeling that work ethic, Rosie went back to school. She completed her GED and proudly earned her bachelor's degree in Finance from Rutgers University, all while working multiple jobs to support her family. In the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, she joined the U.S. Department of the Treasury as a bank examiner. In that role, she played a pivotal part in assessing the health of banks and auditing their performance.
Rosie never planned on getting involved in politics, but she felt called to serve. Recalling the importance that education played in her own life and driven by a desire to ensure Clifton's children receive a quality education, Rosie decided to run for Board of Education. Though she came up short in her first run, Rosie was elected to the Clifton Board of Education in 2013.
During her two terms on the Board of Education, Rosie was an effective advocate for our children. She fought tirelessly to ensure the city provided students with a top-notch education while maintaining fiscal responsibility. She helped invest over $8 million in capital improvements and allocated more than $3 million for children's safety, all while ensuring the school budget remained under the 2% tax cap.
In 2018, Rosie felt called to serve in a new capacity. Looking around and seeing how many of her fellow Clifton residents were being left behind and forgotten, she decided to run for Clifton City Council. Rosie energized voters and won, making history as the first minority elected to the Clifton City Council. On the City Council, Rosie has been a staunch advocate for middle and working-class New Jerseyans. She has been a tireless advocate for local small businesses and economic development, providing residents with the opportunity to achieve their own American Dream.
In addition to her work on the Clifton City Council, Rosie is deeply involved in the community through her leadership in several nonprofit organizations. She is the founder of Latino Leaders of Clifton, a civic organization dedicated to empowering and uniting the Latino community. She is also the founder of Team PINO (Providing Individuals New Opportunities), a non-partisan initiative aimed at breaking the cycles of poverty and hopelessness by collaborating with businesses and elected officials to effect real, positive change. She is also the founder and executive director of ECHO (Educated Communities Help Others), a nonprofit dedicated to promoting a culture of learning and opportunity.
In her rare free time, Rosie volunteers with local charitable organizations. A cancer survivor herself, Rosie volunteers with the Red Hat Angels/Relay for Life, supporting cancer research and awareness efforts. She also serves on the board of the Theater League of Clifton and is a PTO President.
Rosie and her husband Eric are blessed with a modern day blended family of 11 beautiful children, two of whom are adopted from the foster care system. They reside in Clifton, where Rosie has lived for over 30 years.
